MAPBM presents 'Listen Carefully: The thorny ethics of site-responsive art' with Andrew Belletty

In the second of MAPBM's public seminar series we are very pleased to present Listen Carefully: The thorny ethics of site-responsive art by Andrew Balletty at RoseyRavelson Books, 1 Badgery Crescent Lawson at 6:00pm on Wednesday 27 November 2024.

Balletty, an Indian-born Australian artist and researcher based in the Blue Mountains, will present two recent Darwin-based projects. These initiatives address the town's declining social fabric, particularly among disengaged youth. Belletty's work demonstrates how carefully designed listening interventions can foster empathy and meaningful engagement. His approach is influenced by his upbringing in Darwin's tropical environment and extensive experience in cinematic sound design within diverse cultural contexts.

This session is open to the public as well as MAPBM Members, but book early as places are limited. This will be a fascinating presentation relevant to everyone involved in contemporary art, but in particular to artists involved in making site-responsive work.

Tickets cost $5.63 including booking fee and a donation for one free drink. For more information and to book please visit https://events.humanitix.com/mapbm-presents-listen-carefully-the-thorny-ethics-of-site-responsive-art-with-andrew-belletty
